Foreword
The following pages showcase IMAP deals
over the last 12-18 months, representing our
collective transaction track record of delivering
optimal M&A outcomes for our clients amid an
ever-changing economic backdrop.
After a subdued 2016, this year started with a
boom in M&A, largely ignited by a combination
of excess liquidity - both in terms of debt
finance as well as readily available and cheap
private equity capital. The market is focused
on looking for quality businesses in which
to invest or to acquire and is reflected in the
notable increase of private equity involvement,
representing nearly 30% of IMAP transactions,
up from less than 20% in previous years. While
uncertainty still prevails and deal flow is not back
to 2015 levels, the expectation is that momentum
will remain strong - we are on track to close
upwards of 170 deals across IMAP in 2017.

Jurgis V Oniunas
IMAP Chairman
“Our greatest success is
represented by the long-term
relationships that we have
built and that continue long
after the transactions have
closed.”
IMAP excels in the industrials sector and,
combined with the number of deals in the
TMT sector, account for nearly half of all
IMAP transactions, with healthcare, consumer
products and business services following close
behind. The mid-market, specifically deals up
to USD 500 million, remains IMAP’s foundation
and core focus. However, the breadth and
scale of deals completed by IMAP member
firms show we are capable of blockbuster
deals as well. Our teams in Canada, the U.K.,
Italy and the U.S. closed 5 large deals worth an
aggregate USD 6 billion in the first half of 2017.
While cross-border deals hover steadily
around 35%, in reality almost every transaction
harnesses IMAP collaboration and participation.
Our advisors are constantly working together to
leverage the collective experience of more than
350 M&A professionals for local access to trade
buyers and sellers, providing relevant, strategic
sector insights, and robust valuation methods
from around the world.
We have strengthened our global footprint in
Poland, India, Spain and the UK and we now
provide a very strong capital markets offering in
London and Warsaw, alongside our very strong
M&A offering. Our firms continue to win awards:
Capstone Partners won the “Cross-Border Deal
of the Year” at the 9th Annual International M&A
Awards hosted by The M&A Advisor, for advising
Arnold Industries on its acquisition by Bossard.
Dresner Partners was named as a finalist in
Information Technology and Telecom Deal of
the Year, and North America Deal of the Year
for The M&A Advisor’s 9th Annual International
M&A Awards. Our team in Poland was named
Euromoney’s Best Investment Bank in Poland and
they also won the Excellence award for 2017.
Still, our greatest success is represented by
the long-term relationships that we have built
and that continue long after the transactions
have closed. We know our clients come back
to us because we deliver, transaction after
transaction, intimate industry-related knowledge,
excellence in execution and the very best
tailored M&A financial advice.
